Hi @merlijn2504,
I am not sure I understand. Are you saying that the event_status, event_status_reason, is_online, and online_url are not one of the fields that get returned when making a GET Events API request?
Yes that is the case. And I can’t update the fields in a POST call.
@tristan083
Is there any way this is going to be implemented soon?

Hi @merlijn2504
Thanks for your message.
Upon checking The Events Calendar REST API, I could not find the Event Status field you’re looking for. However, when you check the endpoint /events/{id}, you’ll get a similar field, which is EventStatus.
See example- https://demo.theeventscalendar.com/wp-json/tribe/events/v1/events/1762
I hope this helps, and please let me know if you have further questions or concerns.
Hi @d0153,
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately this fiels is in the json_ld object. I can read the field in a GET call but I can’t POST/PATCH the event_status despite it’s stated in https://theeventscalendar.com/extensions/event-statuses/ (changelog 1.1.0).
Event_Status is not described in the API Swagger documentation. So i think this is overlooked when this plugin was implemended in the main plugin.
I hope there is a way to post a call to update the event status. I’m implementing the calendar for a hot-air-balloon foundation for children and the events needs to be changeable pretty quickly since it all depends on the weather.

Hi @merlijn2504
Thanks for your response.
I will consult with the team to verify if the current status has been incorporated into the REST API as well. As soon as I receive further information, I will make sure to update you.
